I've never tried rowing. I know it can be a smoker, so I'm interested in getting going.

Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.

Took about a week off of training, getting back to it this week.
Still on the higher reps, less weight.

Somewhat off topic but not, anybody here go to Denver gym and fitness on 104th and Colorado? Getting ready to move off of 104th and need a gym I can squeeze in a workout between 2:45 and 4 on my way home from work. Curious if this place is any good.
I was pointed to this article on rucking from Western Rifle Shooters - http://maxvelocitytactical.blogspot....c-rucking.html
I tried some stuff with a pack last winter, my knees hurt for a couple of days afterward because I went too heavy too fast and I tried to move too quickly.

I also do not endorse rucking. Typically I only do one, maybe two a month and the farthest I typically go is 12 miles.
If you can ruck past 10 I feel like you could ruck past 50 miles if you had to. Like others have said save your knees and your back bc rucking is horrible for you r body.
thats why I am trying to row 25k/week and hopefully get over 50k/week in the next few months.
I earned a bulged disc rucking, its good excersise but not a competition.
I was sick this week and not feeling motivated, last night I had to really dig deep to do a chest/tricep workout and didn't even hit shoulders seperatley. But this morning I did biceps and will do back tonight. But I tried a new bicep lift this morning I had just never done and I love it, incline seated dumbbell curls. I did 4 sets of wide grip barbell curls and then instead of standing dumbbells I did the incline (mainly because I was lazy and wanted to sit haha). So the seated inclines hitting a different angle gave me a deeper/harder pump then I have had in a while.
I normally do wide/narrow grip barbell, hammer, standing dumbbell, modified preacher bench and sometimes ez bar.
